REALITY CHECK: Travels in the Australian Ice Hockey League is a non-fiction book about the 2014 AIHL season and the Australian hockey scene, due for release in early 2015.

During the 2014 season, I travelled with the Melbourne Ice and the Melbourne Mustangs to each AIHL venue, accessing the dedicated players, presidents, commissioners, and fans who make the hotly-contested league one of the world’s most unique sporting competitions.
